Torre de Belém - Skip the line

Strategically built on the north shore of Tagus river, between 1514 and 1520, for the defense of Lisbon, it’s one of the jewels of the D.Manuel I reign’s architecture.

The Torre de Belém is a cultural reference, a symbol of the specific nature of the country that goes through the privileged dialogue with other cultures and civilizations.
